Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

Elintaal does not have chemical groups associated with oxidising properties. The oxygen present in the molecule is linked to carbon and hydrogen atoms only. Therefore it can be concluded beyond reasonable doubt that Elintaal is incapable of causing fire or enhance the risk of fire when in contact with combustible material. As such further testing is not needed. Elintaal is not an oxidising substance.
